Jennifer Aniston will star alongside Robert De Niro in The Comedian, the Art Linson-scripted drama directed by Taylor Hackford that has been a De Niro passion project for years. The film will shoot early next year in New York. Linson and John Linson will produce the film along with Cinelous Mark Canton and Courtney Solomon. Cinelou, which funded the Aniston starrer Cake, is financing the picture.
De Niro plays a toxic insult comic on the order of a Don Rickles (with whom De Niro starred in Casino). Aniston meets him at a wedding, and they develop a close relationship.
